One of the most used baby products after car seats, a twin pushchair will be the baby's home for a long time, so it's essential that it's easy to move. Our test subjects loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds compactly and has a great steering. It comes with a lot of extras that rival brands charge separately.
The Silver Cross Wave is another excellent choice for siblings or twins of varying ages, as it's designed to take 2 seats and car seats (it is also able to be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode).

For example, the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats that are suitable from birth, a comfortable parent-facing carrycot, and a toddler seat, making it an ideal choice for siblings of varying age.

Some aren't easy to fit on public transport, and they may not be as stable moving on kerbs, as a single-pushchair.
Certain models can fold down smaller than others, which can be a good thing if you're low in storage space at home.
